Abstract

Predicting environmentally friendly behaviors in the workplace is crucial for achieving sustainability, as human actions significantly impact the environment. In the healthcare sector, nurses' behaviors can play a pivotal role in environmental protection, such as reducing energy consumption and minimizing the waste of medical supplies and medications. However, research on sustainability behavior among nurses in the workplace remains limited. This study aims to extend the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) by incorporating environmental awareness to examine nurses' intentions to adopt sustainable practices in public hospitals in Algeria. Primary data were collected from a convenience sample of 132 participants working in public hospitals through a self-administered paper survey. The results indicate that attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and environmental awareness positively influence nurses' intentions to implement sustainable practices in the workplace. The findings are expected to assist various stakeholders in developing sustainable health policies.
